Thank you Go check this link, We used this design and are very happy with the cost and functionality of these racks. I would rather spend my $2500.00 on a killer morph. The racks are lite unlike the melamine racks and if primered no warping . Check out their stock!

I use the sterilite 28qt tubs for all but my largest breeders!
Ventilation is accomplished by 12 half inch holes , I use an old stick style soldering gun. I use 11in tape for sub adult to adult and 4 in for 6 qt tubs for babies. You can get 20 28qt tubs in one rack.
Grow some Balls!

Cool, I'll go to home depot this weekend and pick up some material. I think I'll let my rats pay for it, I just sold some rats for $66 that I can use.

Many collections have been paid for with rats! I can remember when my rat bill increased to $200.00 a month. I started to breed my own and glad I did! It can be alot of work but its very convenient!

If you have allot of balls it really pays to breed your own rats. I figured if I bought rats for $4.50 each for my 27 balls it could cost like $486.00 a month.

I took yesterday off work to start working on a homemade 66 quart snake rack. I hope it turns out, I worked on it all day. It's made with 80"x 24" blank doors cut in half. I got the doors cut in half and put the tub glides on then I painted them with a mold and mildew proof paint. now I've got to wait for the paint to dry. And I'm out of bud light LOL...   |

I thought I was the only person that took days off to play with my herps. I dream of when I can do that everyday ! The racks coming together and one thing you may consider is using L brackets in the corners. Take care and go get some more Bud ;D
